When I first started blogging, I didn't realize how many Godly, encouraging mom and/or wife bloggers there were out there. I enthusiastically started publicly following any that I came across that I even remotely identified with. ; ) Then, once I realized how many of us are around, I narrowed my following list to blogs I especially liked. Now it's time to make another change.
As the number of blogs I like has grown, I've decided to only follow anonymously. Even if you are my friends, it's a big thing to publicly say, "Yes, I endorse this person, I am their follower." I really like Blogger's following options, and I love being updated when you post new notes, recipes, thoughts, etc. It's just that in re-evaluating, I would rather do it anonymously.
So, if I have disappeared from your list of followers, don't worry. I'm still there. I'll still be reading and commenting. And I'll still enjoying your blogs.
I am so grateful for the opportunity to blog. To pray for others, to encourage others, to be encouraged, to have a network of friends who are in one way or another waking down the same path I am. I feel like God has a ministry for me to fill though blogging. I just want to be careful about my choices, and for now, at least, I think the best choice is to follow anonymously.
God bless you, dear girl.
ReplyDeleteI too started out just publicly following nearly everyone, but as you said it needs to do some changing, for me the change came when I realized that whatever I put on there people will click on. That is how I find new blogs and how I found yours, I found someones blog that I enjoyed reading, and figured that the blogs that they follow and have on their sidebar would be ones I would like also. In a way it's almost like our testimony, you can have a friend who appears to be a strong Christian on the outside, but when you walk into their homes and you see the world in their home then it dissapoints you.
ReplyDeleteI have had so much fun blogging, it's hard not to spend too much time blogging!
Blessings,
